The nixbld group belongs to nix-daemon and you really don't want to be
in it. If you are in it, nix-daemon will kill your processes when you
least expect it :)
It'd be better to do the update as an unprivileged user; for
now, we do our best to minimize the surface available. We
filter mount syscalls to prevent the process from undoing the fs
isolation.
Resolve download.dnscrypt.org using hostip with a bootstrap
resolver (hard-coded to Google Public DNS for now), to ensure
that we can get an up-to-date resolver list without working name
service lookups. This makes us more robust to the upstream
resolver list getting out of date and other DNS configuration
problems.
We use the curl --resolver switch to allow https cert validation
(we'd need to do --insecure if using just the ip addr). Note
that we don't rely on https for security but it's nice to have
it ...
Use mkMerge to make the code a little more ergonomic and easier
to follow (to my eyes, anyway ...). Also take the opportunity
to do some minor cleanups & tweaks, but no functional changes.
After the change of the bonding options, the examples were not quite correct.
The diff is over-the top because the new `let` needs everything indented.
Also add a small docstring to the `networkd` attr in the networking test.
Set `networking.networkmanager.wifi.macAddress` or `networking.networkmanager.ethernet.macAddress`
to one of these values to change your macAddress.
* "XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX": set the MAC address of the interface.
* "permanent": use the permanent MAC address of the device.
* "preserve": don’t change the MAC address of the device upon activation.
* "random": generate a randomized value upon each connect.
* "stable": generate a stable, hashed MAC address.

Version 2.0.0 is installed as a separate package called "couchdb2".
When setting the config option "package" attribute to pkgs.couchdb2, a
corresponding service configuration will be generated. If a previous
1.6 installation exists, the databases can still be found on the local
port (default: 5986) and can be replicated from there.
Note that single-node or cluster setup still needs to be configured
manually, as described in
http://docs.couchdb.org/en/2.0.0/install/index.html.
We only care about /nix/store because its contents might be out of
sync with /nix/var/nix/db. Syncing other filesystems might cause
unnecessary delays or hangs (e.g. I encountered a case where an NFS
mount was taking a very long time to sync).
The implicit behavior of pulling it out of the classpath seemed not
to work properly and could be thrown off by other things on the
classpath also providing the properties file. This guarantees that
our settings stick.
We now make it happen later in the boot process so that multi-user
has already activated, so as to not run afoul of the logic in
switch-to-configuration.pl. It's not my favorite solution, but at
least it works. Also added a check to the VM test to catch the failure
so we don't break in future.
Fixes#23121
phpfpm currently uses `readFile` to read the php.ini file from the
phpPackage. This causes php to be build at evaluation time.
This eliminates the use of readFile and builds the php.ini at build
time.
This reverts commit 29caa185a7.
Not clear what the proper thing to do is. cf94cdb59b renders this
question mostly moot. Reverting before 17.03 branch to avoid a repeat
of #19054.
reason:
- We currently have an open discussion regarding a more modular
firewall (https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/23181) and
leaving null makes future extension easier.
- the current default might not cover all use cases (different ssh port)
and might break setups, if applied blindly
This PR adds support for ```iio-sensor-proxy``` used by GNOME v3 and
others for reading data from the accelerometer, gps, compass and similar sensors
built into some relatively recent laptops.
Additionally, there is a NixOS module exposed via hardware.sensor.iio
for enabling services, udev rules and dbus services.
When dhcpcd instead of networkd is used, the network-online.target behaved
the same as network.target, resulting in broken services that need a working
network connectivity when being started.
This commit makes dhcpcd wait for a lease and makes it wanted by
network-online.target. In turn, network-online.target is now wanted by
multi-user.target, so it will be activated at every boot.
Using toJSON on a string value works because the allowed JSON escape
sequences is almost a subset of the systemd allowed escape sequences.
The only exception is `\/` which JSON allows but systemd doesn't.
Luckily this sequence isn't required and toJSON don't produce it making
the result valid for systemd consumption.
Examples of things that this fixes are environment variables with double
quotes or newlines.
